Malicious emails and files

If you are suspicious of an email or download link there are a few ways to check it out (from Liron Segev).

A file can be checked by copying the link to the file (or a URL) and pasting it at VirusTotal.com. You will get an analysis of the file or URL and report of any malicious content. This is particularly useful to check a program before installing it on your computer. Just upload the EXE file.

If you think your personal information has been widely spread on the internet try DeleteMe which is a service that can help remove some of this information.
